Sharp Knife
Large Cutting Board
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 6 large romaine lettuce leaves
- 2 cups coleslaw mix
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (like from a rotisserie chicken)
- 1/2 cup peanuts or cashews (or a handful of crispy wontons; find these near the croutons)
- 1/4 cup Thai peanut sauce or any Thai-style salad dressing
- 2 large flour tortillas
On a large cutting board, slice off the sides of the bell pepper and discard the core.
Still on the cutting board with the bell peppers, add the carrots, romaine lettuce leaves, coleslaw mix, and chicken. Just pile everything on. Use a knife or large pizza cutter to roughly chop everything together. This gets a little messy, but just scoop everything back into the center. Don’t skip on the chopping - you want everything to be nice and small.
Add the peanuts or cashews and chop again (skip if using crispy wontons).
Drizzle the sauce over the top of the salad and toss everything together with salad tongs or a serving spoon and fork.
Scoop the salad onto tortillas. If using crispy wontons, add them now. Drizzle with some more sauce if you’d like. Roll and enjoy!
